VITALE and REALTY ACQUISITIONS ) AND TRUST, INC., ) ) Defendants. ) ) and ) ) CORAL SPRINGS INVESTMENT GROUP, INC., ) ) Relief Defendant. ) ) ) COMPLAINT Plaintiff United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") alleges: SUMMARY OF ALLEGATIONS 1. This case concerns a fraudulent offering of securities that was orchestrated and carried out by Defendants Robert J. Vitale ("Vitale") and Realty Acquisitions & Trust, Inc. ("RA TI"). Between 2004 and 2010, Vitale and RA TI solicited and raised at least $8.7 million from investors in connection with four real estate securities offerings of RA TI, a South Florida based private company that Vitale established. In connection with these securities offerings, Vitale and RA TI made numerous materially false and misleading statements and omissions concerning, among other things: the credentials and experience of Vitale and other purported RATI officers; Vitale ' s supposed reputation for honesty in the investment world; the safety of
2 investing in RA TI; and the ownership of the properties purchased with RA TI investor proceeds. These misstatements and omissions were designed to enhance the attractiveness of, and to induce investors to invest monies in, the RATI offerings. By engaging in this conduct, Vitale and RA TI violated Section 17 (a) of the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act") as well as Section 1 O(b) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") and Exchange Act Rule 1 Ob-5 promulgated thereunder. Vitale also effected transactions in securities for the account of others without being registered as a broker in connection with his RA TI activities, and, by so doing, violated both the unregistered-broker statute (Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act) and an August 31, 2006 Commission Order that barred him from any association with any broker or dealer (Section 15(b)(6)(B)). Finally, at all relevant times, no registration statement was on file with the Commission or in effect with respect to any of the RA TI offerings or sales described herein. Accordingly, Vitale and RATI violated Section 5 ofthe Securities Act. 2. Unless enjoined by this Court, Vitale and RATI will likely continue to engage in such violations, and in acts, practices, and transactions of similar purport and object. JURISDICTION 3. This Court has jurisdiction over this action pursuant to Securities Act Sections 20(b) and 22(a) [15 U.S.C. 77t(b) and 77v(a)] and Exchange Act Sections 21(d), 21(e) and 27 [15 U.S.C. 78u(d), 78u(e) and 78aa]. Certain of the transactions, acts, practices, and courses of business constituting the violations of law alleged herein occurred within this judicial district. THE DEFENDANTS 4. Robert J. Vitale, age 42, is an inmate housed in the Miami Federal Detention Center in Miami, Florida, where he is serving a two-year sentence for perjury and obstruction in the investigation giving rise to the filing of this action. Vitale established RA TI in 2004 and has 2
3 been its chairman, principal officer and director, and "property financial expert" from the time of RATI's inception through the present. Vitale has also been the President and Director of Coral Springs Investment Group, Inc. from its inception in 2004 through the present. 5. Realty Acquisitions & Trust, Inc. is a Florida company incorporated in Defendant Vitale has been the founder, chairman, principal officer and director, and "property financial expert," from its inception to the present. All of the subject real estate securities offerings orchestrated by Vitale were issued through RA TI. THE RELIEF DEFENDANT 6. Coral Springs Investment Group, Inc. ("CSIG") is a Florida company incorporated in 2004, and an alter ego of Defendant Vitale. Defendant Vitale has been the President and Director of CSIG, from its inception through the present. CSIG is not alleged to have engaged in any securities laws violations but holds or controls assets and/or funds that represent fruits of violations by the Defendants that are the subject of this Complaint. Vitale holds his primary residence and office in the name of CSIG. FACTS 7. Vitale formed RATI in 2004 for the stated purpose ofrati acquiring, improving, and selling at a profit, residential and commercial real estate in South Florida. Thereafter, Vitale and RA TI, using the mails and the instruments of interstate commerce, solicited and sold shares in RA TI' s four securities offerings, titled the Series A, B, C, and D offerings. 8. According to the Private Offering Memoranda ("POM") for these offerings, investors in the offerings were entitled to share in the future proceeds of the sales of certain residential and commercial South Florida properties, which were to be purchased, renovated and 3
4 improved using the offerings' proceeds, and ultimately resold, all under the direction of Vitale and RATI. 9. Between November 2004 and at least February 2010, Vitale and RATI sold at least $8.7 million worth of the RATI offerings' shares to at least 52 investors, including numerous senior citizens. 10. No registration statement was ever filed with the Commission or has ever been in effect with respect to any of these offerings or sales. Misrepresentations Concerning Vitale's and Other Purported RATI Officers' Credentials 11. In the POMs and other solicitations that Vitale authored, signed, distributed and/or otherwise used to solicit funds from RA TI investors, and over which he was the ultimate authority, Vitale misrepresented his own credentials and those of his brother and mother, both also purportedly RA TI principals. 12. In brochures presented to prospective investors, which he signed, Vitale described himself as RA TI' s "founder and property financial expert, [who] graduated from Notre Dame with a degree in business in 1993" (emphasis added). 13. In fact, as Vitale and RATI knew at the time these materially misleading statements were made, Vitale had no college degree, in business or otherwise, and did not attend college at all (though he did obtain a 1989 diploma from a certain Notre Dame High School in West Haven, Connecticut). 14. Similarly, in the POM for the Series D offering, Vitale and RATI said of Vitale's brother (and purported RATI Vice President), Anthony Vitale: "From October 1980 to March 2004 Anthony was the majority owner ofstatewide Petroleum, an oil company in Connecticut" (emphasis added); while numerous RA TI investor brochures, which also included the foregoing 4
5 language, added, "[Anthony] graduated from South Central College in 1975 with a degree in business finance." (Emphasis added.) 15. In fact, as Vitale and RATI knew at the time these materially misleading statements were made, Anthony Vitale had no college degree, had never attended college, and had merely worked in a sales position at, and had never been an owner of, Statewide Petroleum. 16. Regarding RATI's purported president-vitale's mother, Ann Vitale-the Vitaleauthored investor-solicitation materials misleadingly stated: "Ann worked in the banking industry for over 40 years. Her expertise is in managing clients' money." 17. In fact, as Vitale and RA TI knew at the time these materially misleading representations were made, Vitale's mother had worked only as a bank teller and bank teller supervisor. Misrepresentations Concerning Vitale's Reputation in the Investment Industry 18. In their solicitations to RATI investors, Vitale and RATI repeatedly stressed Vitale's purported integrity and honesty as a selling point: In a "Letter from the Founder" that Vitale signed and routinely included with investor solicitation materials, Vitale stated, "Though there are very few people of integrity left in the investment industry, we have become enormously successful through our honesty..." (emphasis added). Vitale and RA TI also routinely stated in other RA TI solicitation materials, "We are members of the Southeast Florida chapter of the Better Business Bureau ["BBB"] and... have built a reputation ofgreat honesty and integrity in the investment world' (emphasis added), adding that adherence to "truth and integrity in advertising" (emphasis added) was a BBB principle that RA TI and Vitale scrupulously followed. 5
6 19. Despite making these claims, Vitale never disclosed either (i) the SEC enforcement action against him- which had charged securities fraud stemming from an alleged market manipulation occurring while Vitale worked as a stockbroker in South Florida, and had been filed in 2004, well before the RATI offerings commenced, or (ii) his 2006 settlement of that action and the sanctions to which he agreed, including an antifraud injunction, disgorgement, civil penalties, and a broker-dealer bar. See SEC v. Surgent et a!., Civil Action No CV (S.D. Fla., filed April 16, 2004); In the Matter ofrobert Vitale, Rel. No (Aug. 31, 2006). Misrepresentations Concerning the Safety and Security of Investing in RA TI 20. Vitale and RA TI also made numerous material misrepresentations concerning the safety and security of an investment in RA TI, claiming in RA TI solicitation letters they sent to investors over Vitale's signature: (i) "... nothing makes me prouder than to tell each and every one of you, my valued investors, that your principal investment is always I 00% protected. And, with the state of the economy - especially the equity markets these days, knowing your principal is protected is a value you can't put a price on" (emphasis added) and (ii) "... it must be a great feeling for all of you to know that whatever happens, your principle [sic] investment amount has and always will be protected." (Emphasis added.) 21. In fact, as RATI and Vitale knew when these statements were made, RATI investors' funds were not "100% protected." In fact, as Vitale and RATI well knew, some or all ofrati investors' principal was at all times subject to loss due to real estate market fluctuations, as well as further risk of loss due to the manner (detailed below) in which Vitale and RATI had the properties titled and mortgaged. 6
7 Misrepresentations Concerning the Use of the RATI Offerings' Proceeds 22. Vitale and RATI used the investors' funds to purchase a total of twelve South Florida properties. Of those twelve, however, Vitale and RATI caused only one to be titled in RATI's name: a commercial property, located at 2319 South Federal Highway in Boynton Beach, Florida, and more particularly described as Robinson Addition, Lots 1-5, recorded in plat book 23, page 144 of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida (hereinafter the "South Federal Highway Property"), whose full $2.4 million purchase price was paid with investor funds, with another $400,000 in investor funds being used to pay for demolition of the building formerly there. 23. As to the other eleven properties purchased with investor proceeds, Vitale and RATI made only approximately 20% down-payments on each, taking out mortgages on the balances, and titling nine of them in Vitale's own name and the remaining two in the name of his mother (and RATI's purported president), Ann Vitale. 24. According to the RATI offering materials, however, the properties to be acquired, improved, and later sold, would all be titled in RATI's name or "in the name ofa related party LLC." (Emphasis added.) The RATI offering materials stated, for example, that "the Company is seeking to purchase properties..." and repeatedly referred to properties to be purchased as "the Company's properties." (Emphasis added). Thus, titling all but one of the properties in Vitale's own and his mother's name was materially misleading. 25. While Vitale and RATI later disclosed in the POM for the Series D offering that Vitale and his mother were the titleholders of the properties purchased with RATI proceeds, this disclosure was made after the vast majority of the funds had been raised. Moreover, in making this disclosure, Vitale and RATI also falsely assured investors that "Robert Vitale and Ann Vitale 7
8 are now in the process of transferring all Projects that they purchased in their names with the Proceeds to RAT! (the corporation), which RAT! estimates will take 6 to 8 months." (Emphasis added). Such transfers were never made and the remaining properties are still controlled by Vitale and his mother through various alter ego entities. Vitale Acts as an Unregistered Broker and Violates His Broker-Dealer Bar 26. In making his solicitations and sales of the unregistered RA TI securities offerings between 2004 and at least 2010, Vitale solicited investors, advised investors as to the merits of the investment, participated in the securities transactions, received commissions, and exercised control over investor funds and securities, all without being registered as a broker in accordance with Section 15(b) ofthe Exchange Act from at least August 2006 onward. 27. On August 31, 2006, Vitale was barred from association with any broker or dealer pursuant to a Commission Order (the "Order"). In the Matter of Robert Vitale, Rel. No (Aug. 31, 2006). 28. Since entry of the Order, Vitale was not given consent by the Commission to begin associating with any broker or dealer again. By acting as an unregistered broker between 2006 and 2010, as alleged in paragraph 26, Vitale thus violated the terms ofthe Order. Vitale, RATI and CSIG Obtained Investor Funds 29. Through the conduct described above, Vitale and RATI fraudulently raised $8.7 million from RA TI investors out of which, among other things, at least $481,000 in "management fee(s)" were paid to Vitale alter ego and relief defendant CSIG, and the 2319 South Federal Property referenced above, which is still titled in RATI's name, was purchased. 30. Vitale caused the aforementioned $481,000 in management fees to be paid in the form of checks drawn on RATI's bank account, funded with RATI investors' funds, and made 8
9 payable to Vitale's alter ego, CSIG. CSIG remains in possession of these and other illegally obtained RA TI investor funds, or assets purchased with such funds, to which CSIG has no legitimate claim.
